21.4 – Sparrowhawk
October 11th, 2009
i wasnt sure if i should go on with this museuming of my birthday gifts, because things are different now, and perhaps it wouldnt be such a good idea to dwell. or memorialize.
but everything was just so wonderful, perfect, and tangible. instead of the loud and wayward alcohol-infused surprise party that was supposed to happen, we quickly changed plans, took off, and ran away into the woods. we rented a car and drove up — and it was all simply sublime, the way the sunset shimmered between the autumn trees and the headrest of the seat hummed contentedly as the evening fell away behind us in curves. at one point, just as i’d almost crawled into a lazy sleep, i was momentarily jolted awake to look at a deer just beyond the windscreen. i was grumpy at the sudden awakening, but secretly happy that i got to see the deer. it was grazing on a small meadow, with its head held high in the air, and it looked like something out of a book. that weekend, everything felt like something out a book.
we even tarpau-ed some fried rice and char kway teow from my favorite Malaysian restaurant, and ate while watching the latest episode of Grey’s Anatomy. how is that not perfect?

I gotta say this place looks a little bit creepy.
It reminds me of movies like “Amity ville Horror” and them movies where people get stuffed in between the walls of the house and shit. Or like a retarded, deformed guy lives in the basement and collects body parts, just like “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre”. Urgh…

very quaint lil’ BnB. Good for a secret getaway. he he he.. but the autumn foliage in the east coast has always been breathtaking la.
the recent “out-from-the-storybook” scenery i saw was in Vang Veing, Laos. It was mad beautiful.

I was suppose to get the video done and then put it up somewhere for u to see right….
Then I got it done and my internet didn’t work for a whole fuckin week -_- Damn sad right…
So i had to use my college computer to write on ur wall and say happy birthday like all the other “normal” ppl T.T
